Well, it was and still is on Xindice TODO list :-)

I'm curious, why do you think so? Is there any reason or observation for this?

Please bear in mind also that lots of collections will exhaust your system resources, particularly, file handles (see archives - somebody already hit that limit, I guess he had thousands of collections).

Thanks for your contribution; I'll review your changes as soon as I get some time.
